What Hacker News says?
I've recently quit my job to work on my startup full time. I do have some money saved up and am living cheaply. At some point you have to take a chance on yourself and do what you want.

HN discussionI've been using jekyll with linode quite successfully. Haven't really had any problems. I did have to make some modifications to the Jekyll source to modify the way it finds posts (I don't like that it only looks for posts that have dates in the filenames). Other than that it's been working quite great! Here is a full description of how I am using Jekyll: http://www.akashkgarg.com/uncat/anatomy.html
